Madrid

I'm very sorry that I didn't blog for a long time now... I had some exams in food sensory, food biotech and food analytics and therefore I had to study a little bit...

Now I want to post some pictures of Madrid where I've been in October for four days! It was actually a pretty spontanous trip, I never had plans to go to Spain and not at all during the semester. But then I got a call from Livia (she was one of my friends that have been in the Netherlands) and she asked me what I was doing on the weekend. As I didn't had any plans, I immediately accepted her offer. Our aircraft was due to take off in Basel bound for Madrid on Thursday evening and come back on Monday. That was just perfect!

Her flatmate Janina is actually from Madrid and so we only had to pay for the flight, everything else was organized. So we could stay Janinas aunt's place and her parents even payed for the metro & bus ticket.

All in all we were around ten people, me, Livia, Janina and her brother, their parents an grandparents... It was just great having such good cityguides. We visited the whole city and what we did most was eating. The weather was just great, it was sunny and still pretty warm, at least compared to Switzerland. One evening we went to Café Central where the Lluis Coloma Jazz Trio was performing. Damn cool!
